The site had been fenced off already and regular patrols of security who drive the site meant we had to find somewhere reasonably quick to get in, but we walked round that place 4 times before stumbling across access which was typically in site of the nosey neighbours who we could see watching us through the windows.
A bit of making out we were surveying using our tripods and time against us for light we just went for it, the beeping we could hear inside turned out to be the firealarm power out warning trip running and not alarm system as we had suspected.
The site opened in 1871 as the Delancey Fever Hospital and was named after Mrs Delancey who stumped up the cash to part fund its opening. In its latter days i think it was more a Geriatric patients with it being your last stop before departing, in its earlier days(pre 48) it was used as an isolation hospital.

Most of the shots are on high ISO as my failing tripod died and despite plenty of tape surgery, i finally hd to call it a day and abandoned it in the old hospital, fair well you served me well.
